About

Why this artist matters now

Giovanni Antonio da Brescia was an Italian engraver active in northern Italy between approximately 1490 and 1519, during the Italian Renaissance. His prints were long attributed to two separate artists, as his early work bore the initials "Z.A.", a signature scholars once assigned to a distinct printmaker named Zoan Andrea. It is now understood that both signatures belong to the same hand, "Zovanni" being a north Italian dialect spelling of Giovanni. Around 1507 he shifted to signing with formulae such as "IO.AN.BX.", marking a clearer assertion of identity within his output of some twenty known engravings.
